Few shots of a Statos dotted throughout this one - looks like the Le Mans extended wheelbase version? Some other lovely machinery in here too.

It's the standard wheelbase. One of the 9 pre production cars.

The LWB cars were very few. One car in early Alitalia colours, was later painted in not one, but two Aseptogyl colour schemes.
'Not to be confused with the long tail group 5 cars, which (I'm pretty sure) were standard wheel base.
The 1973 Targa car has a big tail spoiler and no roof spoiler (because it was from pre production wing/spoilers era) so that might make it's dimensions appear different, even though they're not?
